the game; the affair between the
Obrenowicks and the Karageorgie-
wicks assumes quite an importance,
Peter Karageorgiewicks’ success,
therefore, will be the success of a
party which has the entire sympathy
of Russia, and inherits a hatred, of
the Turks and Russians. We may
expect, therefore, to see Western
Turkey in a perfect white heat of dis-
tracting revolution if the Russian
mined to make a second attempt in
behalf of his family to obtain the
throne of his ancestors. At first sight
it, seems an insignificant squabble be-
tween two families, but, when it ap-
mors that Russia has her hand in

We have heard many estimates of
the loss sustained in this county by
the ravages of the storm. About 85
per cent. of the cotton that was open
in the field is not too large a figure.
We do not mean that so large a per
centage, was actually blown from the
stocks ; that might be put at 60 per
cent. But what remains hangs in
such strings and is so tangled about
the bolls and stems that it will be
but poorly saved.

The invasion by Peter Karageor-
giewicks, if such an invasion is a
fact, suggests that Russia proposes to
carry out her plans for the erection
of a Sclavonic Confederation under
her protection. The Karageorgie-
wicks family achieved the indepen-
dence of Servia in 1814, with the ex-
ception of the payment of a limited
tribute to the Turks. They were re-
placed by the Obrenowicks family, to
which Prince Milam belongs. In
1864 the ruling Prince was murdered
by a member of the Karageorgiewicks
family, but the Obrenowicks retained
their supremecy. Prince Milam suc-
ceeding his father. Russia has al-
ways supported the Karageorgie-
wieks, and it is probable that under
her auspices that Peter has deter-
E=
ow emaciate her body by living
upon pure flowers, roots and fruits,
but let her not, when her lord is de-
ceased even pronounce the name of
another man.” "Only one meal a
day,” says another sage, “should
ever be made by a widow; not a
second repast by any means, and a
widowed woman sleeping on a bed-
stead would cause her husband to
fall from a region of joy.” India
may therefore be regarded as any-
thing but a happy hunting ground
for widows.
A Steamboatman’s Reminiscence
[Paducah (Ky.) Herald.]
Capt. Bill Rollins tells us that it
was on Friday night, September 17,
nineteen years, ago, that the biggest
frost fell that was ever known in the
West at this season of the year. It
killed the tobacco throughout the
Whole North Mississippi, and Ohio
Valleys, and injured or destroyed
nearly all other green vegetation.
Capt Rollins remembers it by the
fact that it was on that day that the
Indian was hung for murder. He
(Capt. Rollins) was an officer on a
steamboat on the Ohio River, and
was making the very best time pos-
sible to reach Paducah . to see the
Indian hung, when on the night of
the 16th his boat struck a sand bar
